Yes, start it!
- Shown to be successful in producing results. Weight loss even in people who had found like difficult.
- Pretty reasonable - advocates lean protein. The "Attack" phase, where you can only eat protein last about 5-7 days, after which you can have vegetables again.
- The attack phase brings about results quickly, producing and average of 4 - 7 pounds for a 5 days diet! that is about 2.5 to 3.5 kg! It usually takes me all summer of walking, dieting ( eating lots of green leafy salads -yuck) and walking to produce this before it disappears as soon as autumn starts and I cave it to a comfort food or two.
- In the "cruise phase" , the weight loss is expected around 3 pounds a week to begin with, followed by 2 pounds a week. In 2 months, the total expected weight loss is about 20pounds, 10 kg! It is about 5 kg in 1 month.
- The rate of weight loss is perfect. It means that I might drop a dress size by boxing day, go shopping, and update my wardrobe! I need fast weight loss, where i can replace the cloths, and have no turning back.
- Low carb diet is good for people with metabolic syndrome! That should be good for the insulin resistance.
- Improves fertility? reduced insulin resistance, reduced weight should me increased fertility. I have also read that high protein is supposed to be good for the quality of eggs (blush)
- I actually like oat bran, and the oat bran omelette suggested by this diet.
No, this is crazy!
- Proteins? That is lean protein only. Not even beans. That is a lot of chicken and fish. To survive on chicken or fish for a week will make me catty or foxy, or both.
- $$$$$ Hmmm.. how much will it cost to fill myself up with mainly chicken and fish?
- bad breadth - you will get this if you go on ketosis
- killing my kidneys?!! And lots to toilet runs - since you need to drink lots of water
- killing my liver?
- Constipation ...yuck
- Body ordour...yuck
- moodiness - due to lack of carb. some people feel light headed.
Hmmm....
1) protein is still better than salads, right?
2) $$$$ - i just checked to cost of IVF. If I can avoid paying for an IVF, that pays for enough chickens for years.
3) 3-7 - ok, lets be honest. When you are obese, you get them all.
4) 8 - ok, if you are infertile, hairy, obese, dying to have sugar all the time, you still have it.
Verdict - giving it a try!!!
